    I'm glad Matt included the video of Chad hitting that game-winner. I emailed the link to Chad's high school coach and posted it on his dad's Facebook page.
    I am Ed. Fear me.

      Catching up to TV's tweets and I thought this should be mentioned. Wolters is now up to #19 on the mock draft board. http://www.nbadraft.net/2013mock_draft

        Ahh man as a jazz fan. That would be awesome. It would only be more fitting if he went and played with the minnesota timberwhites....I means wolves. If mason plumlee keeps up playing great I see him top 15 pick but that's cool seeing wolters listed in that group.

          Very cool to see Wolters up there even though I don't like him. Still don't see it happening.

              Never have got the "Wolters isn't athletic enough" criticism. He seemed athletic enough against Minnesota and esp. against UW where both guards were 1st rd picks. Wolters more than held his own against Pierre Jackson last year in the tournament as well. Also, from all accounts he more than held his own at the KD skills academy and esp. at the Adidas Nations scrimmages. I mean during last years Summit League tournament if looked plenty athletic when he went for a sick baseline one-handed jam. He dropped 30 against Alabama at their place where they are known as an athletic, defensive team.

                I've explained this before, but he is athletic enough, he is not a Griffin Callahan (and I mean no offense), who isn't quick, has no vertical and gets by on grit a lone. However at the same time Nate is not a Dale Moss who gets by, on athleticism alone. Nate is a very smart player, who is really good at basketball, who is still athletic, but his basketball ability and IQ allows him to look at times like he is Dale Moss though he is not. His size helps too, at 6'4" you don't have to be quite as athletic as you would if you were 5'9".

                  The St Cloud Times did another article about the local boy.
                  http://www.sctimes.com/article/20121...could-lead-NBA

                  "Wolters has always dreamed about playing in the NBA. He’s a Timberwolves fan, but he’d play anywhere."

                  “Everyone dreams about the NBA to a certain extent,” he said. “It’d be pretty cool if it happened. I would make the most of it. I don’t worry about that as much as other people do, though. I take it one day at a time.”


                  Don't know how long the link will stay live, the Times has a habit of disabling links after a few days.

                            From TV's blog after the CSUB game, "Wolters pushed his career points total to 1,812. He needs three more to tie Austin Hansen for third on the SDSU career list and 10 to tie Lee Colburn for second. Mark Tetzlaff is tops at 1,931." According to my math skills, Nate needs 119 to tie and 120 to break the all time record. At his current average of 20 points per game he is on pace to break it in 6 more games. Next 6 games are on the road with the 7th being here at home. Would love to see him break it at home, but would also love to see him tear it up the next 6 games and have it taken care of before the road trip ends.
